We went to see Harry Potter this morning. The theater was packed for an 11am movie which was kind of surprising. Minutes before the movie started, in walks my Ex and his current partner and sit on the row in front of us. This doesn't bother either one of us. My Ex and I are fine with one another. He's fine with Steven as well. We speak when we see one another like nothing is wrong. I honestly didn't fully expect us to be best bud's after the whole break up. I'm not that delusional. But we're nice to one another. There's no bitterness, hatred or uncomfortable feelings at all.
It just blows our mind how uncomfortable it makes his partner. Uncomfortable I guess isn't the right word. It's how angry, jealous and bitter it makes him. He literally hates us. We were all fine and got along great until one weekend a few months ago, after texting to my ex, he grabs the phone and starts going off on me by texting to Steven. Obviously, it was none of his business. What my ex and I were talking about was a serious subject between he and I. It's a wonderful thing what alcohol does to someone and what it brings out. When they're drunk, some people open up their mouths when they should keep them shut.
I've never been known for being the type of person to shut my mouth and take someones shit either.
Ever since then, he's made things very uneasy. Brian has to sneak a wave and a hello while the partner looks away, ignoring us on purpose and acting like a child. He actually pretends he can't see us. I hate the fact that first off he's making it difficult for my ex. He's a good guy that shouldn't have to deal with this, but he's also not the type of person to say anything either. Secondly, that it's caused the friendship that we could have continued with to dissolve. The new partner has said it himself, that he prides himself on being a bitch. Lately, it's showed.
This is the first Ex I've ever had that I'm not still on speaking terms with or that I'm still able to be friends with.
It bothers me more then I want to admit.

I'd guess that he feels threatened by you and the role you played in your ex's life. He's probably afraid that he doesn't measure up to you in some regard. Which, of course, is no excuse for him being a douchebag.
Oh give me a break!! He obviously is afraid you and Brian will get together again.
Considering how insecure he obviously is, I wonder how long their relationship will last. Your ex deserves more, frankly. And you sure as hell don't need any of that shit.
Here's hoping that you can find humor in his shenanigans. I don't know if that's the right way for you to deal with your emotions, but it works for me (hence all the stories about dumb bitches on my blog).
Chin up, sweetie! xoxo
Moes usually aren't lying when they "admit" they're a bitch, even when they're trying to come across joking.
Seen it too many times. He also sounds like the kind of guy to sit at home and eat a failure pile out of a sadness bowl from KFC.
it's not that your ex is not the one not speaking to you. It is his response and action of how he has to behave around the new bf. After all the ex is the one living with the new bf. Oh glad to see you back....
